The good news is Mansell got out of it with just a bruised head.Nothing in there to damage .Glad he's ok.

Shame about the Pug challenge fading, it was a feisty come-back after that alternator problem which cost them the lead.

Bourdais will probably be crying again now.

He was being rather over dramatic imo.

Audi 1-2-3

But really did anyone expect the number 9 car to be the one to win?

[texasmr2]

Kind of another example of the 'tortoise and hare' story don't ya think?

[EwanM]

Your right tex.

ALL 4 PEUGEOTS ARE OUT.

CAR #4 JUST HAD AN ENGINE FAILURE.

AUDI'S RACE, AUDI'S YEAR!

Geez, they all went out in order to. First the #1, then #2, then #3 and finally the #4 Oreca went.

Glad at least that Strakka won the LMP2. Danny Watts is brilliant and top notch driver.

Agreed. 6 lap lead for the Strakka car - it has ran great all race.

Also a big lead for the Saleen, despite a couple of issues.

Oh no 009 Lola Aston Martin (Turner/Hancock/Barazi) retires. Engine failure

[cap-dude]

009 Aston is gone Gawd, it's just been hours of heart break lately.

Well done Duma, Rockenfeller and Bernhard - Audi 1-2-3!

[What's Burning?]

I said it early on in this thread, it's a 24 hour race. Audi sweeps the podium 1-2-3 even though they clearly weren't the fastest LMP1 car.

exactly Pugs tried to run it like 24hr sprint, and they all went pop.

Fantastic job by Audi looking forward to next year newer regs should make things closer and more exciting.

Anyone see the advert from Audi in any of the newspapers today?

Was rather great to see them make such an effort.

[What's Burning?]

What's a newspaper? I didn't see it and I did a quick internet search and came up empty so if you've got a link, I'd love to see it.
